"Better with each glass of wine..." yeah yeah yeah! :-D
But I have to admit... I thought I was bein' attacked by a swarm of Queen (as in Freddy Mercury) bees before I got the point about kazoo. Yeek!
Greg... you know, if u don't C# you'll Bb. Words to live by.
I gotta go.

@ Mark Imsdahl . . . .
I knew there was another verse to this song.
Just for everyone's information, Mark was with me last Friday when we went to meet Steve Krell at the airport.
Breakfast became quite entertaining. Ernest hit us with everything he had, and in the end became our friend . . . well . . . maybe not Steve's friend.

Me oh my! Singin' dem ol' low down Mississippi breakfast blues down on da Delta! Slippin' slide guitar... and loved the blues harp just passin' thru!
BTW- I've been to the Russian version of Ernest's Cafe. Several of 'em, in fact.
Where did this song come from?
Let's blame Steve Krell for introducing the outlaw, misfits of society theme.
It was just a laps of judgment
I should have thought it through
I swung and then I hit him
And I did it all for you
He…

Song #7 for my 2025 RPM Challenge. Another one with my Juno Synth as the main player. It ended up being much longer than intended (but it fits with the title...). I call it a Peter Griffin ending (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4X8HsEj7d4…
Big sound, you still have the touch. I wonder what you are doing the other 11 months of the year (more a statement than a question). I hope you are writing, performing or something associated with music. I always enjoy hearing what you produce.

I was writing this from about 1am this morning before I went to bed, then on and off in between takes on the demos of the previous three today…
First song I'm posting for RPM 2025. Not sure I'll finish this year....but I'll try.
Wrote this after listening to more of the horrible news coming out of the US.
Watching for you
Over shoulders
Can’t believe our eyes
Bolt the doors…
Song 5 for my RPM Challenge (the half way mark!). Decided to use my Juno synthesizer for this one - I love that thing. Did this yesterday after a nice winter hike. Thank you to anyone out there who listens - much appreciated xoxo

A song about people who've been in and moved on in our life - maybe a lullaby of sorts... thanks for listening to my latest.

Just finished running sound for the Second Act Players’ production of "Finding Gladys" and enjoyed putting together original music to use for a theme, a soap opera, and scene changes. The song 'Getting To Know You' from the musical "The King And…
Ok, not the best thing I've done, but it seems that 1/ It has become a chore to even pick up my guitar. 2/ And to go and record. Old age getting to me ?!?!?!
Phew! Song 10 of my RPM 2024 done. Well, this is more of an experimental piece...I threw a bit of everything in...prophet synth, electric guitar, and even some crowd noise (I loved it when Bjork did that so...). The power cutout just as I was…

Well done! I enjoyed the line "empty Bottles and a pile of unwashed plates" I'm pretty sure she is your valentine.
This hits home. You got me laughing. It’s all true!
Wow! I listened to this last night and again this morning. Lots of emotion in here. Well done.
Interesting texture to this.
You still got the touch! Nice song.
This is pretty neat! I can definitely feel the waves on a calm sea.
Ohhhhhh ... another masterpiece. Great imagery creating visual pictures in my mind all the way through. Excellent start to a new year of songwriting!
Nice work Tilden!
I just played this for my wife Rita. You now have another fan.
Nice recording! You have captured some great instrumentation and vocals.
Good song with great guitar playing, or should I say shredding. Well done Ron. I think your trio is a success!
A Foot Tapper! I love it.
Another listen this morning. Good Stuff
Beautiful song! Another Dillon classic
This is fun! We’ll done my friend
It’s a foot tapper! Nice one Roger.
That’s a great sound.
Good Stuff!
Congratulations … another RPM success! Your music has a very unique quality to it. Very refreshing.
